The Studio
Infanti is a stop motion animation studio founded by two Belgian sisters, Louise and Margot. After following different yet complementary career paths, they launched a project in late January 2024 that they had been dreaming about for a long time: working together to create stop motion animation videos.
Working within tight budget and time constraints, they strive to build poetic and surprising worlds — small universes that, in just a few seconds, can evoke emotion and invite the viewer's imagination to expand the story or world beyond what is shown. Their work is crafted almost exclusively using needle-felted wool, chosen both for its aesthetic qualities and for the transparency and flexibility it allows.
They intentionally preserve a raw and imperfect aesthetic in their videos, allowing the texture and magic of stop motion to come through the screen. Their approach stands in contrast to the rise of AI-generated imagery and its often polished, seamless look. Instead, they aim to highlight the value of handcraft and the beauty of imperfection.
